The Chief Clothing Board should submit for consideration
by the Bonus Awards Commission the question of bonuses
for the production of 20,000 pairs of hunting boots.

The question is of tremendous importance for our victory
in the south, and it is most important that the boots be made
quickly. I request you to look into this urgently, and to
take steps to ensure that the boots are actually made in the
time demanded by the Commander-in-Chief, Comrade
Kamenev.
